Write 1 interesting & 1 challenge from Syllabus. Introduce yourself

[Instructor]

Dia Dhaoibh, that is Hello in Irish (pronounced Deea yWeev).

• Something about me is that I love Ireland, and try to go there every summer.
  Also, Ireland has Web Designers as one of the careers they allow to come in on a work visa.

• One thing I find interesting in the Syllabus is the Data Bases. I enjoy knowing online orders can automatically tell the inventory list that it now has less because someone bought one of the items. This way a company would know how much they have left to sell without having to go count the inventory.

• One thing I find may be challenging is setting up WordPress on our own server. My students and I in the past have had the luxury of using WordPress on WordPress' own server, so to instead do the many steps to set it up on our own server I find challenging.

The above two sentences were the required assignment for this week (along with filling out form with your forum user name and email), so please also tell us something about yourself; and then one interesting and one challenging thing you read from the syllabus. You do not need to be as detailed as I was. One sentence or more each of the three items is fine! Click on post reply to do this.
I am Toni McDonough (pronounced Mc Done Ah), and as your instructor, I hope to facilitate excellence this semester.
Let's Learn and have fun doing it!

Hello Everyone. My name is LaTara Misher and I am a TMCC Senior majoring in Graphic Design. I plan on graduating in the Fall of 2025.

Something that I found interesting about the syllabus is building websites through Wordpress. As a side hustle, I build websites for non-profit organizations and small businesses, many times using Wordpress to complete the jobs.
Something that I find challenging in this course is would be adding E-Commerce options to a website. This is not a service that I have been asked to perform, so it ought to be interesting to see how this all pans out for me.

Overall, I look forward to the interesting and challenging tasks of this course, as well as meeting you all virtually.

Hello, everyone!



I'm super excited to work on stuff like parallax scrolling and other ways a website can be customized even further than just the simple colors and buttons. I think a challenge for me will be making websites work across all devices. Not that it will be necessarily complicated, but the tediousness of it might get to me.

Looking forward to seeing everyone's amazing work this semester!

Sa-Wad-Dee-Ka, (Hello in Thai). My name is Kawinthra (Ka-Win-Tra) Chongsuksantikul. I am from Thailand.

I am excited for this class and ready to dive deeper into web design. All three projects seem very interesting. But it’s also a challenge for me because Web Design is like another language that needs to combine with other skills and creativity. I also need to dust off my skills from GRC 175.

Nice to meet all of you. Let’s have a great semester together!

Hi Everyone,

my name is Melissa and something about me is that I love art and nature. Something I find interesting in the syllabus is topics of animation and interactivity, I hope to be able to add elements of those into my designs. Something I find challenging in the syllabus is site management, making sure the websites are up to date and that the performance is good.

Looking forward to this class!

Hello,

My name is Genevieve Dierenga I am in the graphic design and video production track as a double major. I graduated with my AA in graphic design this semester and then my AA in video and motion graphics next semester. I will also be going for my bachelors in graphic design through Nevada state. when I am not at school and doing homework a play video games such as Valorant, Minecraft, COD, and Dead by daylight. I listen to a lot of different type of music right now I am really enjoying R&B artist like Chlothegod or Yaya Bay. I also really enjoy reading anything from nonfiction history, manga, manhua, and novels. the one I am reading right now i the the cruel prince.

one thing I am excited for is learning how to make a online store front I have always wanted to learn how to. I am a little worried about understanding analytics, and the search engine side of making a website. and I hope that I am able to make a better functioning reactive websites it is something I have struggled with.

I look forward to seeing everyone's work!!

Hi guys,

I am a graphic design major at TMCC. Working on getting the advanced certificate currently. Then most likely going to go for my Bachelor's. When I'm not at school I'm a print production specialist and I've had a graphic design job in the past.

I think Project 02 will be the most interesting and the most complicated. I think designing a website for a commercial brand is something that will be useful for real world designing and would look great on a portfolio. So I'm looking forward to gaining experience on that project. But it also seems the most complicated with having functional shopping carts. I'm a bit worried about the coding aspect of that.

Looking forward to this semester with you all!

[shasta_m0ri]

Hello, world! My name is Shasta. I am a huge lover of cats, cameras, and coffee! I am 100% a cat lady, one of my passions is photography, and I will never pass up a good ol' iced latte. I am majoring in graphic design and hope to incorporate my design skills with my photography in some way.

Something in the syllabus I find interesting is the font package available for purchase that has all of the fonts available on the GAMT computers. For some reason, I never knew this was available and have previously had a hard time transferring some fonts from the school computers to my home computer for assignments. Now that I know I have this tool available, I may not have to worry as much about fonts!

Something in the syllabus I find challenging is interactivity and animation. I'm sure learning these things will give me a good challenge and make the sites I create more appealing in the long run.

Hi LaTara, Thank you for starting us out. I am looking forward to you sharing your business owner experience concerning building websites on the WordPress platform. Perhaps in class you can discuss if you do it on their server, or an independent server. Welcome!

Hi Emily, I love your board. You are a natural visual artist! Also, you must have the patience of a saint if you are teaching music to elementary. Welcome!
